Form factor & compatibility

Information on compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop graphics cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility).

Interface	PCIe 1.0 x16	PCI
Width	IGP	1-slot
Supplementary power connectors	no data	1x Molex

VRAM capacity and type

Parameters of VRAM installed: its type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. Integrated GPUs have no dedicated video RAM and use a shared part of system RAM.

Memory type	System Shared	SDR
Maximum RAM amount	System Shared	32 MB ×2
Memory bus width	System Shared	128 Bit ×2
Memory clock speed	System Shared	166 MHz
Memory bandwidth	no data	2.656 GB/s ×2
Shared memory	+	no data

Connectivity and outputs

This section shows the types and number of video connectors on each GPU. The data applies specifically to desktop reference models (for example, NVIDIA’s Founders Edition). OEM partners often modify both the number and types of ports. On notebook GPUs, video‐output options are determined by the laptop’s design rather than the graphics chip itself.

Display Connectors

No outputs

1x VGA

API and SDK support

List of supported 3D and general-purpose computing APIs, including their specific versions.
